Mountains around Las Vegas Valley

Mountains are my favorite place on earth. There is nowhere else I would rather be.

There are over 100 peaks within an hour's drive from Las Vegas Valley offering great vistas, unique rock formations, solitude and a variety of both desert and alpine flora and fauna.
Some I have climbed only once, others tens of times. All are great memories.

Please share your favorite and special photos of Southern Nevada mountains that you have taken.

"The most beautiful thing we can experience is the mysterious. It is the source of all true art and science. He to whom this emotion is a stranger, who can no longer pause to wonder and stand rapt in awe, is as good as dead: his eyes are closed.""
